Building Support to “Axe the Gas Tax”

Sen. Rob Kane (right) thanks taxpayers for signing his petition to try to stop the state’s gas tax from being hiked.

Sen. Kane greeted motorists at Big Daddy’s Gulf Station in North Woodbury on June 24 to raise awareness of a 4-cent per gallon tax hike slated to take effect in July.

“The taxpayers’ response to the petition has been overwhelmingly positive,” Sen. Kane said. “More than 12,000 have signed the petition, which can be viewed and signed online at www.AxeTheGasTaxCT.com. Please keep spreading the word and making your voices heard. Please help me send a clear message to Hartford that we are fed up with tax hikes.”
